John:


Good Morning from Capitol Hill.

The House and Senate are both back in session this week. Both are scheduled to be in session for the whole week.

The House and the Senate continue to try and advance Appropriations bills ([link removed]) , even as the deadline of September 30th, the end of the fiscal year, creeps into view. That is when the government will need to come together on how to fund the government in order to prevent a government shutdown. Really three options exist: extend current funding through a Continuing Resolution (CR), pass and then have the President sign all 12 appropriations bills, or do some combination of both.

The White House recently sent to Congress a list of policies ([link removed]) to include in the CR - called anomalies ([link removed]) - that they would like to or need to have extended in a “Clean CR”. President Trump is also urging Members of Congress to support a “clean” short-term CR to late November. With narrow margins in both the House and the Senate, final passage on the short-term government funding bill could be a tight margin.

Another priority of the White House, but not as well publicized, is massive deregulation. In the President’s first term, his goal was a ratio of eliminating two rules or guidance documents for everyone one issued. At the start of the Administration, President Trump signed Executive Order 14192 ([link removed]) , Unleashing Prosperity Through Deregulation which identified a ten to one goal. As outlined in the purpose section of the EO, it reads in part, “It is the policy of my Administration to significantly reduce the private expenditures required to comply with Federal regulations…To that end, it is important that for each new regulation issued, at least 10 prior regulations be identified for elimination.”

A little over a month after signing the EO, the Council of Economic Advisors issued a memo ([link removed]) detailing the savings as a result of President Trump rolling back President Biden era regulations. “Since returning to office, President Trump has saved American over $180 billion, or $2,100 per family of four, by halting proposed Biden-era regulations.”

Stunningly, at a recent cabinet meeting, Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Director Russ Vought announced ([link removed]) that the Administration has achieved a ratio of eliminating thirty rules or guidance documents for every one issued.

These changes ([link removed]) are not small, either. “The Endangerment Finding ([link removed]) ,” which has been used to justify $1 trillion in costly regulations related to emissions regulations for motor vehicles and engines to the American people, is apart of this deregulation. While in a silo, deregulation is an important part of this Administration’s economic efforts, but it doesn’t tell the whole story. Deregulation has been coupled with an aggressive approach on reducing spending ([link removed]) , growing private sector economy ([link removed]) , bringing in revenues through tariffs
([link removed]) , and unleashing America’s energy producers ([link removed]) , which is resulting in a strengthening economy.

Moreover, the Administration recently released the “Spring 2025 Unified Agenda of Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions ([link removed]) ”. This agenda details the thousands of rulemakings outlined that the Administration plans to make over the next year and beyond. From the looks of it, the Trump Administration plans to continue to be very active on the deregulatory front.

ICYMI…
* The State Freedom Caucus Network recently hosted ([link removed]) their Summit last week with Border Czar Tom Homan, delivering the keynote address ([link removed]) .

* The National Conservatism ([link removed]) conference took place in Washington recently and CPI’s Vice President of Programs, Rachel Bovard, took the stage in the first session and delivered a great opening speech “Welcome to Next Time ([link removed]) ”. If you want a sense for where the NatCon movement’s energy and focus grew out of, you’ll want to watch her speech.

* The American Mind: The Family: The Foundation of America’s Next 250 Years ([link removed])

* EPIC: Does a CR Automatically Extend Funds Congress Previously Rescinded ([link removed])

* Center for Immigration Studies: Overall Foreign Born Population Down 22 Million January to July ([link removed])

* Fox News: Supreme Court Allows Trump ICE Raids to Resume in California ([link removed])

Sincerely,
Hugh Fike
Senior Director, CP Academy
